Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the constituents of Range Lake, I, too, would like to take a moment this day to pay respect to the four RCMP officers killed in the line of duty yesterday in Alberta. Mr. Speaker, this is a very sad and tragic event in Canadian history and I hope that the families and colleagues of the four officers who so bravely gave their lives and service to their country find some comfort in knowing that the whole nation shares their loss and sadness this day and we are sending along our prayers and deepest sympathies. This is certainly a reminder how these officers put their lives on the line every time they report for work.
Mr. Speaker, I would also like to send special well wishes and condolences to the RCMP "G" division district in the North to the commanding officer, Everett Summerfield, and Inspector Morrow and Inspector Fortin in the gallery, and all men and women in uniform in the North who give us safety, who give their service and who do such a great job in looking after the safety and well-being of our people. I think it is a day for us to all remember how important their work is and how grateful we are for those people who do that job for us. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
